PPStream PowerPlayer.DLL ActiveX Control Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

PPStream PowerPlayer.DLL ActiveX Control Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

PPStream PowerPlayer ActiveX control is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.

Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application using the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed exploit attempts likely result in denial-of-service conditions.

PPStream PowerPlayer ActiveX control 2.0.1.3829 is vulnerable to this issue; other versions may also be affected.
